I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.
There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.
They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

They continue to violate a court order to retrieve someone they illegally deported.
We’re now well beyond a constitutional crisis. If they’re allowed to do this, their secret police can sweep up anyone, for any reason, deport them & refuse to bring them back.
That would be the end of democracy.

So Trump had silenced the Voice of America now. Alongside his closure of USAID he has single handedly blunted the hard edge of American soft power around the world.
Ask yourself who does this help? Where are people celebrating this, Tehran and Moscow certainly.

This is insane. Every consultant or advisor who has planted this idea in his head should be fired. Then Schumer should resign.
Schumer tells me Republicans might try to jam Democrats again in September, but thinks Trump will be less popular then and Republican appropriators might be more willing to stand up to him. He said they refused to do so now.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say that the only people who want to kill the CFPB are grifters. It has been an unalloyed good for the average American and has returned more than its budget in reparations for financial fraud multiple times over.

Raw milk is one of those ideas that can really only take hold when people haven't seen a cow. if you see a cow from let's say ten feet or less you immediately understand the problem that pasteurization is solving

Got to play Black Forest and Bus last night! Bus never gets old, such a fast and sharp design. Black Forest was really interesting but felt very difficult to build a good strategy as the situation changed so frequently. The resource wheels are still a very unique mechanical design!
